BREEAM CONSULTANCY
The Building Research Establishment Environmental
Assessment Method (BREEAM) is a leading system for
assessing the range of environmental impacts associated with
buildings. It provides a mechanism to demonstrate measurement and
progress towards environmental and sustainability objectives,
incorporating best practice guidance and providing external
certification of performance.
Assessments are currently not mandatory, however may be required
for funding purposes, planning applications or client
request.
The higher ratings (i.e. Excellent and Outstanding) require
substantially better energy performance than the current Building
Regulations, resulting in a building with:
- Reduced operational costs
- Improved comfort for occupants
- Reduced environmental and embodied impacts
- Functionality, flexibility, maintainability and durability
- Increased brand value, support a corporate environmental
strategy/policy
- Potential building value premium
Inbuilt's approach offers innovative integration of design
advice and BREEAM experience to ensure the targeted rating is
achieved post construction. Inbuilt has several BREEAM Accredited
Professionals (AP) who can ensure that BREEAM requirements are
incorporated into the design at an early stage, to help reduce the
additional costs associated with sustainable buildings.
Management of the BREEAM strategy throughout the detailed design
and construction stages is essential to ensure that the targeted
rating and initial sustainability objectives are managed and
maintained.
